I confirm this issue. Executing command `dpkg-reconfigure ez-ipupdate' will make the daemon start, but when the computer is restarted, the /var/run/ez-ipupdate/ folder is removed (I have no idea what or who does this) and ez-ipupdate fails to create the pid file in that folder because the folder doesn't exist (it doesn't create the folder either).
# Following line is added to /var/log/syslog ez-ipupdate[4863]: could not create pid file /var/run/ez-ipupdate/default.pid (Bad file descriptor), exiting I'm using Ubuntu 6.06 Desktop, 32-bit PC version. -- Daemon doesn't start https://launchpad.net/bugs/32727 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
